Enabling security codes to be sent to you as part of a Two-Factor authentication process will help to protect your account from unauthorized access.

If you do not enable 2-Factor Authentication for your SEFT account, you will be unable to login to access your SEFT account or any data it contains. There are NO exceptions. For questions, you may contact the NIH IT Service Desk. Instructions to setup 2FA for SEFT can be found here: 2FA SEFT Setup
